At the HANNOVER Fair 2025 IEN EUROPE editor Kay Petermann met with Francisco Almada Lobo, CEO of Critical Manufacturing to talk about the benefits of a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) and why it is helpful for companies of all sizes to have one.
Laser triangulation sensors measure variables such as displacement, distance and position on a non-contact, wear-free basis. The most important sensor features are high performance, a compact design and the ability to stabilize the signal with changing surfaces. Micro-Epsilon has now equipped its sensors with the advanced IO-Link interface to network multiple sensors in the factory.
